i think it looks good the way it is now, thats a nice color stang, i dont think you'd need to draw attention to the calipers with a bright red/yellow paint... id keep it black/silverish

Go with a shinny Grey/Chrome effect kinda blend in with the rims. or black as a shadow effect.. red/yellow will just pull your eyes off the car and onto the breaks

The Duplicolor kit is real easy to use.  I have a red car and painted the calipers red.  I think silver would look good very nice with green.

Red/Blk is a classic color for calipers (I personally have grey on mine and hate it)

Red always looks good, but everyone has it.
